Formula to YEARVALUE with Actual months

Hi Guys!!

Could you please help me with a topic? I have a module, where I need to calculate the average of my NET SALES for 2022, and that every month has the same value. I applied the YEARVALUE/12 formula and it works for Forecast months. However, for the current month, Anaplan brings me the Actual value and divides it by 12. And I need an FY average of that value. I already tried to make boolean IF ACTUAL THEN NEXT (Net Sales) ELSE YEARVALUE/12 but it doesn't help. Anaplan continues to bring me current values in January. Anyone have an idea how to do this?

Thank you

I think it may happen with a switchover.

Blueprint has a setting to turn off Switchover per each line item.

Switchover is such a pesky thing.. sometimes you need and sometimes you don't.

And often it does weird things when you least it expect it to.

This should give you what you want:

Net Sales[SELECT: TIME.'FY22', SELECT: VERSIONS.Forecast] / 12

It was pointed out to me that this solution is a bit brittle as it will only work for FY22 🙂

A more robust solution would be to create a line item `Net Sales Avg by Year` with timescale 'Year' and versions 'Not Applicable' and set the formula of that to:

Net Sales[SELECT: VERSIONS.Forecast] / 12

Then set the formula of `Net Sales FY Avg` to:

YEARVALUE(Net Sales Avg by Year)
